Welcome back my friends! What is this… a third chapter? Yes! Yes it is! I managed to get slammed in the head by the writing bunny! He gave me an idea! I have to try it out in this story to see how it goes. If the story starts to sound dumb just let me know and I will try my best to fix it savvy? Well on with the story!!!
The fleet was moving in record time. At this rate you would reach St. Vincent just after four o'clock the next day. The sky grew darker much earlier today due to the clouds. The rain stopped about an hour ago. You stood at the helm for most of the night. Off in the distance you could faintly hear Joe telling Michael all about the ship. The Black Pearl was sailing just ahead of you. Will's ship was on your left. He was standing at the helm as well while Elizabeth stood next to him. They were in what looked like a very deep conversation. You chuckled to yourself and went back to your own thoughts. 'I'm goin home again.' you thought to yourself. The last time you had been there was when you first met Jack. Those were some good times. You were pulled from your thoughts as Beaker came to stand beside you.
" Capn, Bruce says that dinner is ready. I had half the men go get a bite to eat so they can tend to the ship while the rest of us eat." he informed. You nodded and stepped away from the helm. James took over for you while you went to get your dinner. You and beaker walked down to the galley to find that Bruce had prepared a delicious looking soup. You inhaled the scent of it as you sat down at the head of the table. Once you were seated the rest of your crew sat down.
" Gents," you said as each man waited for you to give the order." Dig in!" you finished. Everyone grabbed a bowl and served themselves quickly. You chuckled as you sat back and watched. It was almost like watching the Wal-Mart shoppers at Christmas time. You ate your soup as you watched the scene before you. The men were talking amongst themselves. They were talking about going home and things of that sort.
" So Capn, when do you think we will get into port?" asked Pete. He had dark brown hair and piercing blue eyes. He was just about the same age as you. He worked the sails most days and so he had a fairly good build. He was one of your best men. Everyone fell silent as they waited to hear your answer.
" Well Pete, I am hopin we pull in tomorrow afternoon some time." you replied. Everyone nodded and continued on with there own discussions. You finished off your soup and stood up.
" Well Beaker, I'm off. I shall see you in the morning." you said as you walked towards the door.
" Aye. Goodnight Capn." he replied. You bowed jokingly as you received a bid goodnight from all the men in the galley you walked up the stairs and into your cabin. You shut the door and laid down on your bed and drifted off to sleep. The next day you woke up to see that it was another dark day. The sky was still a thick overcast. You walked up to Beaker, who was at the helm.
" Mornin Beaker." you said as you stood beside him looking out to the horizon. An island was coming into view.
" Mornin? Capn its almost 3:30 in the afternoon." he said. You looked at him wide eyed.
" Blast damn it! I keep sleepin in and it keeps getting later and later!" you yelled out now frustrated. Beaker laughed.
" Honestly Capn, how can we even call ye Capn if yer never awake long enough to be one?" he asked sarcastically. You rolled your eyes and shoved him playfully.
" I'll be takin the helm now Beaker." you said lowly as you took the wheel. Beaker put his hands up in defense and chuckled.
" Aye CAPN, I were only foolin." he said. You rolled your eyes again and patted him on the back.
" I know Beaker. How long do we have until we dock?" you asked.
" I say about half an hour." he replied. You grinned to yourself. You guessed about four o'clock. Beaker brought you up to speed on the days events and then left to help prepare the ship for docking. You smiled as the island grew closer and closer. Jack decided that it would be safer for yours and his ships to anchor off in a near by cove so that you would remain unseen. Will and Joe continued on to port. You dropped anchor and waited for Jack to come aboard. In a few moments you saw him climb on deck from his small rowboat.
" Good day Capn." you said as you sauntered over to meet him. Jack grinned and snuck an arm around your waist.
" Ahh good day to you to Capn." he said. He smiled and gave you a short but sweet kiss. You wrapped your arm around him and looked over your ship. " Well, shall we get goin?" he asked. You grinned and nodded grabbing his hand and walking over to the side of the ship. You climbed down first then Jack joined you. The two of you rowed towards shore. Soon you were at the docks. You climbed out of the boat and turned and helped Jack out. Once you were on the dock you took a moment to look around.
" Well luv, I don't think anyone is gonna come looking fer us here. At least not for a couple days that is." said Jack. You nodded and walked with him to greet Will, Elizabeth, Joe, and your newest addition, Michael. Once the group was together you began to walk into town. Most of the people still gave you dirty looks but you just ignored it. You walked into a bar that your brother used to like to go to a lot. One of his friends owned it so he took you and Joe there a lot. you walked through the door and were overcome with memories of the good times you had with your brother in this bar. Joe walked up to the counter and asked for a guy named Jimmy. He was one of your brothers best friends. You were standing by Joe when Jimmy came out from the back. He walked to the counter and saw Joe and smiled a huge cheerful smile.
" Joe, how have ye been mate?" he asked. Joe smiled and hugged his friend from across the counter.
" Fine, fine. It has been to long my friend." he replied. Jimmy smiled and turned and glanced at you. He took a double take at you when he realized who you were.
" By George, is that Jason's little sister?!" he asked with wide eyes. You smiled and nodded. " Oh my lass, I haven't seen ye in ages! Look at you! My how you've grown!" he shouted. You leaned over and gave Jimmy as big of a hug as you could muster with a bar counter between you.
" Jimmy its so good to see you again." you said with a smile.
" Aye lass, that it is. I heard you were in town a couple months back. Why didn't ye come visitin?" he asked. You remembered your last trip here and how Robert had come after you.
" I ran into some trouble and had to leave right away." you replied. Jimmy nodded. " I would like to introduce you to my friends. This is Will, Elizabeth and Michael." you said as you pointed to each of them. Then you turned to Jack. " And this is my Jack." you said as you wrapped an arm around him again. Jimmy nodded and said hello to each of them. He then called over one of his barmaids.
" Christine, these are some very dear friends of mine. Tonight they will be having all the rum they would like on the house." he said. Christine nodded and headed off to get you all some rum. You smiled and thanked Jimmy and then went and sat and an empty table and waited for your rum.
" I love yer friend already." said Jack as he sat down next to you. You laughed and took a swing from the tankard that was just placed in front of you. The six of you sat in the pub for hours talking. The conversation revolved mostly around Michael as he told everyone a little about himself.
" Well Michael, I am glad you have decided to join us." said Elizabeth. Everyone else nodded in agreement. A few minutes later Jimmy came and sat down next to you so he could catch up on your life.
" So lass, what have ye been up to these days?" he asked. You looked around the bar for a moment.
" Well after Joe and I left we sailed around the Caribbean for a bit. You know, took over a couple ships and such. One day we pulled into Tortuga and I met ol' Jack here." you said. You went on to tell him the whole story about almost being hung in Port Royal and what happened at that island. You told him about Tilly and how it was Captain Morgan who killed her. You told him about the second battle in Port Royal and everything else. " And now we are here hidin out." you finished. Jimmy nodded. Suddenly Jimmy jumped in his seat and grabbed your arm.
" Oy lass, I almost forgot! Yesterday there were a couple men here askin about ye. I had no clue who they were but I told em I hadn't seen ye in months and then they left." he said. Your eyes widened. Jack looked at him alarmed as well.
" Jimmy, what did they look like?" asked Elizabeth. He looked up at the ceiling in deep thought.
" I'm sorry lass, I cant remember. I see so many people that it is hard te keep em straight." he replied. You nodded and smiled knowingly.
" Well Jimmy we must be off. " said Jack. Jimmy nodded and everyone stood up. You gave Jimmy a hug as he whispered in your ear.
" Don't let it be almost a year before I see ye again savvy?" he asked.
" Savvy." you answered. You bid him farewell and walked out of the pub. The six of you walked down the streets towards the dock. You and Jack were going to be staying aboard Wills ship in the extra bedroom instead of going all the way back to your ship. You climbed on deck and walked around with Elizabeth while you talked about things.
" Elizabeth, I cant help but think that those men might have had somthin te do with what we heard back in Tortuga." you said with a slight hint of worry in your voice.
" I know. I feel the same way." she replied. You sighed.
" What do ye think we should do?" you asked. Elizabeth shrugged.
" I guess the only thing we can do is keep our eyes open." she said. You made a small noise in agreement.
" Well I am gonna go find Jack before the bloody man kills himself or somthin." you said jokingly. Elizabeth nodded and went to her cabin. You walked around until you found Jack standing by the side of the ship. He was looking out to sea when you came up and stood next to him.
" What are ye thinkin 'bout?" you asked. Jack sighed.
" I dunno. Maybe its just me bein paranoid but I feel like we aren't alone on this island, if ye know what I mean." he said.
" I know exactly what ye mean. I am feelin the same way. I guess we should just lets this play out and see what happens." you said. Jack nodded.
" Well luv, it looks like we are gonna be roommates for a couple days." he said in a very suggestive tone. You caught on right away to what he was getting at and grinned.
" Mister Sparrow, are you coming on to me?" you asked in a fake snobbish tone.
" Oh I dunno… maybe." he said. You chuckled as he wrapped his arms around you.
" Maybe? What is that supposed to mean?" you asked.
" I dunno. Well what I am rather board right now." he said.
" Oh I can think of a couple ways to pass time." you said in an as a matter of fact voice.
" Mmhhmmm. And how is that?" he asked. Jack was grinning like he was just given a million dollars. You smiled and pulled him towards your cabin. He was grinning the whole way. You pulled him inside and shut the door. Jack was watching you as you walked over to the desk.
" Well luv, ye still haven't answered me question." he said. You turned away from the desk and walked slowly over to him. You backed him into a corner and smiled seductively as you ran a finger along his jawbone.
" Why Jack I thought it would be quite obvious." you replied, giving him a quick but tempting kiss. His arms were once again around your waist.
" Oh really now?" he asked. You chuckled.
" Why of course Jack." you said. Then you pulled two bottles of rum from behind your back and handed one to him. " Rum is always the best way to pass time." you said. Jack's jaw dropped as you kissed him on the cheek and walked back to the desk laughing at his expression.
" Now come on luv! That wasn't very nice at all." he whined. You laughed even harder. You sat down in one of the chairs. Jack glared at you as he sat down in the other chair. You giggled again and stood up and plopped yourself down on his lap.
" Oh come now Jack. I was only foolin." you said. Jack gave you a pouty look and you giggled.
" Well luv now you know you owe me." he said. You raised your eyebrow questioningly.
" And how is that?" you asked questioningly.
" I'll let ye know." he said. The two of you sat there cuddling in the chair as you talked about what you were going to do the next day and soon you fell asleep on his lap. You were completely content with life that night.
